Ghent is an unincorporated community in central Bath Township, Summit County, Ohio, United States. It lies in the area of Granger and Cleveland-Massillon roads, just north of the Ghent Road exit of Interstate 77. It is included in the Montrose-Ghent census-designated place.
Today, it has a number of local businesses such a gas station, restaurants, a bakery and dental office.
As early as 1815, the village of Ghent had several mills powered by Yellow Creek.[1] Several families had settled at Ghent by 1818.[2] A post office called Ghent was established in 1858, and remained in operation until 1918.[3] The community's name most likely commemorates the Treaty of Ghent.[4]
